Hungate Sees 50 50 Chance Rockefeller VP Nomination
Rep. William Hungate of Missouri told a Kirksville audience that there is only a fifty percent chance Nelson Rockefeller will be confirmed as vice president. He cited Rockefeller’s donations as casting doubt on his image as “Mr. Clean.” Hungate, seeking seventh term, sits on the House Judiciary Committee which has heard Rockefeller testify and plans more questioning before a vote. He denied any Nixon pardon deal and said more pardon testimony is likely next month, including possible questions for Leon Jaworski and Gen. Alexander Haig.
